VALOR Officer Safety & Wellness Program
The
VALOR Officer Safety
and Wellness Training and Technical Assistance Program (VALOR
Program)
has been provided by the Institute for Intergovernmental Research
(IIR) since
VALOR’s inception in 2010.
The program is an extensive officer safety program that includes
critical nationwide, no-cost classroom and online training;
strategic partnerships; in-depth research; and focused resources
that agencies can use to enhance the safety of their law
enforcement personnel and/or their own officer safety programs to
ultimately further their public safety missions.
On-site and online education is delivered through a cadre of expert law enforcement practitioners. All training modules are developed using the latest expertise, analysis, tactics, techniques, and response methods to address a variety of officer safety topics.
On-site training includes
single and multiday events.
VALOR offers courses to
include all levels of law enforcement and the law enforcement
executive, as well as a train-the-trainer course, all at no cost
to participants or their agencies.
